The latter two were awarded to Rassie Erasmus and Pieter-Steph du Toit respectively. Captain Siya Kolisi dedicated their win to the South Africans who had supported their squad throughout the tournament. “We did this for all South Africans – ordinary people who work tirelessly all day long to care for their families and friends and ultimately make our wonderful country an even better place,” Kolisi told South African supporters upon his return to South Africa. “Winning the World Cup on foreign soil was very special – and arriving home to this wonderful support is the cherry on top. We are tired but grateful, humbled and over-awed – thank you!” You can catch a glimpse of green and gold along these routes between 7 and 11 November.
